Haven't ever actually parsed my ranger but it seems to get absolutely smushed even in xp group content compared to warrior, pal, monk, sham, or even my bard with similar ac. This was observed from all the way up to 60 on all of the above classes.
Again ... I haven't parsed but it certainly 'feels' really 'not right' for the ranger class specifically.

I don't have any hard numbers, but the first player to hit Level 60 was a Ranger, and they complained very loudly on the official EQ forums that Ranger tanking was terrible in Kunark. Not only was tanking terrible, they were drawing aggro away from Warriors, despite doing less damage, because their typical low delay weapons created more aggro (which is why Jolt got put in the game).
Combined with the hybrid exp penalty becoming more widely known, Rangers during Kunark era went from being one of the most popular classes to being considered one of the weakest.
